Carbonates

Carbonate rocks comprise between 10 percent and 15 percent of sedimentary rocks and are primarily comprised of two distinct types—limestones and dolostones. Limestones are primarily composed of calcite while dolostones are primarily comprised of dolomite. Due to the fact that carbonate materials are typically soluble in waters with a slight acidic level, carbonates typically present high permeability and porosity. Consequently, carbonates are ideal petroleum reservoirs.

Our in-depth industry experience at Kocurek allows us to specialize in providing core sample research services for a variety of carbonates, including:

Indiana Limestone

Silurian Dolomite

Edwards Yellow

Austin Chalk

Carthage Marble (Burlington Limestone)

Edwards Brown

Indiana Limestone

Desert Pink

Leuders

Edwards White

Indiana Limestone

Winterset Limestone

Guelph Dolomite
